Man Goes On 27-Day Road trip From Hyderabad To Ladakh On A Scooter

M Dileep Kumar from Hyderabad loves travelling so much that he can’t think of taking up a full-time job, lest his trip plans would be hampered. Recently, he rode all the way from his hometown to Ladakh on his two-wheeler covering a distance of roughly 2,542.7 kilometres. And he covered the entire journey in a span of just 27 days by riding around 8 to 12 hours daily. The 30-year-old also met with an accident while on this journey. But no challenges could deter him from completing his mission.
